This is perfect country for walking cycling and touring—North to the vast dramatic open landscape of the Moors: West to the green valley pastures of the Dales, loved by our famous local vet. James Herriot, and the wild Bronte Country; South through the Vale of York to the City with its glorious Minster, Jorvik Viking Museum and the National Rail museum: East to the Wolds and coast—picturesque fishing villages, Whitby’s quaint streets, imposing cliff top Abbey and Dracula legend, the traditional seaside resorts of Scarborough and Filey.

There are Castles, Abbeys and Stately homes in abundance. Castle Howard, Beningborough Hall, Newby Hall, Duncombe Park -The Abbeys of Byland Rievaulx and Fountains are all within half and hour’s drive.

Perfect!

Review Submitted: March 15, 2010 Date of Stay: September 2009
This exceptionally well maintained, spacious property offers a luxurious stay making self catering an easy option.The owners here really have thought of everything and couldn't be more helpful and happy to share the garden's produce as well as providing a generous welcome pack with fresh eggs, etc. We enjoy walking from the house to the surrounding villages and there are such views with very little effort - we are returning this Easter for the 4th time!

A Baxby Christmas

Review Submitted: February 23, 2010 Date of Stay: December 2009
As our family is often separated - we chose Baxby for a Christmas get together.

The preparation, support and welcome to Baxby were great, notwithstanding the 4 inches of snow!!

Throroughly recommended.

weekend away

Review Submitted: February 19, 2010 Date of Stay: October 2009
We had a old friends reunion at Baxby Manor in October 2009, it was absolutely wonderful, cannot fault any aspect of our stay in this beautiful manor house. Barney Smith could not have been more helpful and was very welcoming, a nice thought was a welcome basket full of Yorkshire produce (not to mention the new laid eggs from nearby hens). Just a short drive from York and lots of interesting small market towns to visit, plenty to see and lots of good restaurant and pubs to eat in. We had a spectacular Sunday lunch at the Plough at Fadmore (near Kirkbymoorside). Highly recommended.

Lovely farmhouse in perfect location

Review Submitted: February 17, 2010 Date of Stay: April 2009
Baxby Manor is a high standard holiday rental in an excellent location, perfect for our large family who like to cycle in the area and visit nearby attractions such as York and Castle Howard. Plenty of good resturants in the vicinity.

What a treat retreat!

Review Submitted: February 16, 2010 Date of Stay: November 2009
What a beautiful place to have stayed. We were 4 couples and stayed 3 nights in November.
The house had everything we could've needed. There was so much space. The lounge was great in the evenings to sit and catch up. The kitchen was lovely in the morning- underfloor heating- to all sit and plan the day ahead.
The welcome hamper was very generous. Lots of goodies to enjoy.

The area is great to explore and with York on the doorstep what more could you ask for. The local pub (5 mins walk) cooked a mean steak and the wine selection was good. A short walk back to the house in rain wasnt too bad!!

We have recommended this property to many others and we are considering coming back again for another go although telling everyone lese means it will be too popular and we wont be able to stay when we want to!

Absolutely gorgeous property and one the owner should be very proud of!
